SWEDISH MELODIC ROCKERS DALTON TO SIGN A RECORDING DEAL FOR A NEW ALBUM WITH FRONTIERS RECORDS   Frontiers Records is pleased to announce the signing of reunited Swedish Melodic Rockers DALTON for the release of a brand new album expected for the fall of 2014.   Together with Europe and Treat, for a few years in the late 80's, Dalton was a force to be reckoned with in Sweden. They enjoyed successful touring, teen media coverage, TV appearances and a string of radio hits. Even world stars such as Bon Jovi and Michael Bolton provided original songs to their two albums.   The band, formed by ex-Treat drummer Mats Dahlberg and named after his nickname, went all in with the current trends in melodic hair metal. Their image was cutting edge with designer outfits and enough hair spray every night to challenge the average user's yearly consumption. The band was killed by grunge in the early 90's, a destiny shared by many bands of the 80's.   'I left the band because I wanted a harder edge while the rest of the guys wanted to go softer', Mats explains. He formed the short lived band Speedy Gonzales with renowned ...

On May 23rd 2014 Avenue Of Allies will release "Next Stop", the much anticipated second album by the Swedish AOR band SONIC STATION. Since April 18th 2014 the digital single “Amelia” is available, accompanied by a music video (http://youtu.be/gR3J1QSRJNM ) for the track and a first “Making Of “Next Stop” clip (http://youtu.be/EXbFga98KGk ). While perfect arrangements and production values of the highest order are still a trademark of the songs of guitarist, composer and producer Alexander Kronbrink and his band, the music is now focusing on the AOR side of SONIC STATION. The powerful tunes have a more upbeat feeling and give more room to the guitars and with most of the musicians performing on all songs, the recordings carry the spirit of a real band performance rather than having the nature of a high profile studio project like the self-titled debut from 2012. Alexander was brought up in a musical home in Stockholm, Sweden, where one of his friends in the neighborhood was Jonathan Fritzén, who played keyboards and the piano. Together they had jam sessions fooling around with jazz harmonies and even trying out some of their own compositions. Today Jonathan is a ...

URIAH HEEP RETURNS WITH POWERFUL NEW RELEASE: OUTSIDER   Uriah Heep, one of the pivotal hard rock groups to emerge from England in the late 1960s returns with Outsider, its 24th studio album, and the first since 2011s critically acclaimed Into the Wild album. Outsider will be released on June 6th in Europe, June 9th in the UK and June 10th in North America on Frontiers Records.   We are very proud of our history says founder/guitarist Mick Box, but it is equally important to keep producing new material. This new album, Outsider, is very much a rock album in true 'Heep' style. It shows that we still have the same passion and energy for our music that we have always had.   From the opening chords of the albums hard driving rocker, Speed of Sound, to the more introspective closer, Say Goodbye, Outsider proves that Uriah Heep has remained a musical powerhouse, and one that can effectively balance its legendary sound with a distinctly contemporary approach. The record, which was produced by Mike Paxman (Asia, Status Quo), also introduces bassist Dave Rimmer, who joined the band last summer after the untimely death of long time member, Trevor Bolder. &...
